Impact chouameni returns to the starting XI after being left out of Wednesday's Champions League clash against AEK Athens due to physical concerns.

Returns to full training Tchouameni (undisclosed) was spotted training normally with Real Madrid on Friday and should be available for Saturday's La Liga clash against Valencia, according to Diario AS.

Impact Tchouameni appears to have overcome the physical concerns that led to his omission from Wednesday's Champions League encounter against AEK Athens. The French midfielder had been training separately from the squad earlier in the week after playing the full 90 minutes against Racing Santander, with Real Madrid seemingly managing his workload as a precaution. Although coach Jose Mourinho provided no specific update on his condition during Friday's press conference, his return to normal training suggests he is ready to rejoin the matchday squad. No new injury diagnosis or setback has been reported, making his recent absence appear precautionary rather than the result of a significant physical problem. Tchouameni remains an important option in central midfield, particularly through his defensive contributions and ball-winning ability. His expected availability gives Mourinho additional flexibility against Valencia, although Eduardo Camavinga and Bernardo Silva remain alternatives if the Frenchman is not selected to start.

Impact Tchouameni's availability remains uncertain after missing Wednesday's Champions League encounter against AEK Athens following a period of individually managed training. The French midfielder played the full 90 minutes during Sunday's victory over Racing Santander but has since been working apart from the group, raising questions about his readiness for Saturday's league fixture. Although Real Madrid has not reported a new injury or confirmed any setback, the lack of an update from coach Mourinho leaves his status unresolved heading into the weekend. Tchouameni has been an important presence in central midfield this season, particularly through his defensive contributions and ability to recover possession. Eduardo Camavinga and Bernardo Silva remain potential replacements in the holding midfield role if Tchouameni is unable to feature against Valencia.

Impact Tchouameni will miss Wednesday's European encounter despite featuring the full 90 minutes in Sunday's La Liga victory over Racing Santander. The French midfielder began the campaign dealing with an injury, and Madrid appears to be taking a cautious approach to his physical condition following his return to regular action. His individual training session Tuesday suggests the club is monitoring his workload carefully, although there has been no confirmation of a new injury or setback. Tchouameni has remained an important presence in central midfield, particularly through his defensive contributions and ability to recover possession, making his absence a notable loss for Wednesday's encounter. Eduardo Camavinga is expected to replace him in the starting lineup, providing an alternative in the holding midfield role.

He has created three chances while recording three tackles, three interceptions and four clearances across three La Liga appearances.

Impact Tchouameni is considered fully recovered, but manager Jose Mourinho wants him to accumulate more training sessions across Friday, Saturday and Sunday to accelerate getting him back up to speed, a cautious approach that builds on his recent return to group training after missing the Schalke friendly with a muscular issue.

Impact Tchouameni has been sidelined over the last two knockout games, but his absence hasn't stopped France from dominating and winning all of their matches, and it's in the upcoming round where they'll need him most. If he's indeed available to start, he should take Manu Kone's place alongside Adrien Rabiot in the defensive midfield line. Such role would allow the Real Madrid player to produce passing and ball recovery stats, currently averaging 1.3 chances created and 4.3 tackles per game at the international tournament.. However, it remains to be seen if he's ready to play 90 or possibly 120 minutes in the next fixture.
